I remember those great Oakland Raiders teams with Guy booming way high, long punts time after time. That was when George Blanda still kicked field goals. Yes, I’m old!

Hopefully, my 16-year-old will re-acquire that quality at some point.”
========================
Rather surprising statement coming from someone who gets so worked up about the idea of teams inquiring about a players sexual orientation at the combine. I would think that Florio would consider “ass kicking” to be considered bullying or abuse. I suppose an ass kickin for being gay would be out of the question.LOL

If he’s already the highest player on the team, then they should go to the current system. It’s the FRANCHISE tag, not the ‘refuse to give the punter a deal’ tag.

Wait till he has to start kicking FG’s, we’ve watched him kick 70 yarders in pre game a lot. Kid just has a boot on him, and although he is world class D-bag (sorry but he really is) he is a hell of a kicker/punter and will have a good long career.

Priceless. McAfee’s the man, we as fans love people like this and they’re so far and few between.

Now queue Flacco complaining about making $20M to throw a football around for 17-20 games next year.

If you’ve ever seen the segments on Colts.com where he interviews other players you would see why he is so beloved in Indianapolis. Outstanding personality. I’d love to chill with Pat someday.

Fri, 01 Mar 2013 18:47:13 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1778454#comment-2363325This guy is a natural behind a microphone. During the combine, he sat at the desk with Bucky Brooks and the other guy and it was the liveliest and most interesting segment during NFL’s 4 day coverage.

He was telling stories from his combine days, how it was to be a kicker, etc., you know, behind the scenes stories that we’re curious about.

His candor was refreshing and what he was saying was interesting and very entertaining.

$3 million for kicking a ball? I’m very happy for him.

As a Raiders fan, Lechler has been such an asset to the team. At times making games watchable and not a total blowout. When you’re deep in your own territory and you’re able to kick it 60-70 yds everytime, it helps out your team sooo much. Tag him, Lechler you’re next.

He is hilarious, he is well spoken and he has a good outlook on life. Also, he can clean someones clock if they break through punt coverage as he tied for the lead in special teams tackles in 2011. I am glad we tagged him and I am glad he looks at it as an honor. I am looking forward to more of his hilarious stories this upcoming season.

Pat has embraced Indianapolis as his home and the city has returned that love. From his regular appearances on Bob and Tom to his guest hosting numerous local sports talk shows, he has really endeared himself to the city of Indianapolis and Colts fans.
